That place is a true paradise - the black sand is like velvet beneath your toes and the waves are high and majestic. There's nothing to distract you from the beauty of nature - no bars, no toilets, just lifeguards and the setting sun. It's the perfect place to relax and take in the tranquility of the sea.

The ideal spot to kick back and take in the beauty of the island. It's a great place for dogs and those who like to let it all hang out. There's a car park nearby and the views from the road are stunning.

That place is the perfect spot for a relaxing day in the sun! The waves are great and there's plenty of space for everyone. Plus, there are lifeguards on duty for added safety. Feel free to wear whatever you want - whether it's a swimsuit or nothing at all - no judgement here! Just make sure to get there early, as there's no parking after 11am.

Black sand beach is nestled just behind Playa las Teresitas, a surfer's paradise, thanks to its strong winds. The beach itself is quite basic, with no bars, sunbeds, or public toilets. The route to get there is a bit narrow, but the views are stunning.
